Its a small outdoor patio/ structure seating venue. Parking is nearby in lots or streets with varied prices. It's great if you know what you are in store for, otherwise it is lackluster if you happen upon it by chance.
Great venue good parking beautiful setting.
Got to see Stevie Wonder for free!
The venue is great and Stevie Wonder showing up was chef's kiss.
Great place to listen to great music and learn about different cultures. Summer concerts! Go to their website to see schedule.
Great vibe
Great place for music in the community!
🇫🇷 French DJ event was a lot of fun … great food options with long lines so you can chat with locals or tourists…the parmesan vendor had some good samples. Got a bageutte to go with it from another vendor... hit the spot for us while waiting on the DJ to start another set. So good. Pics maybe later, maybe never 📸
Loved the experience, great music, wonderful people. Always love that music unites and brings joy, which is what this event is all about. Parking was easy!
